repeal the 2nd
We as a people, culture, and society are frankly too selfish and horrible to do something as decent as that. Not our fault, we’ve been and continue to be conditioned by the owners to be a nation of irredeemable wannabe sociopaths at each other’s throats, but the fact remains that’s who we are.
Enjoy the cesspool, where greed/sociopathy is our only practiced value, and watching our poorie kids kill poorie kids (because this never happens at the nepo baby private schools) is our national pastime.
Not like we became horrible or anything, we always were. We’re a nation built by slaves owned by religious zealots on top of a genocide(of people who lived in homeostasis with the earth instead of actively setting it on fire) who’s top exports are tools of volume murder and blueprints for other nations to better exploit their citizenry for their elite’s private profit, not like there was ever any grace to lose.
Oh but hey the Axis sunk our pacific fleet once and we fought back after we were attacked which apparently makes us virtuous heroes(?) or something.
Stupid freakin reposts.
The new face of violent radicalism in the United States: aggrieved, rural, white “Future Farmers of America” Trump kids raised by white, rural, aggrieved Trump parents that don’t keep their guns secure.
Edit: yes, he was part of FFA. He was “member of the month” last month.
don’t give him fame. don’t mention his name, don’t post his pic, try not to talk about numbers to turn it into a “high score”. he is anonymous
I couldn’t believe that they released his name like that. Totally out of line by whatever department decided to do that.
Yes it’s odd, given how just before this that football player was shot in San Francisco by a 17 year old. There was a big to-do about will he be tried as an adult and they won’t release his name because he’s a minor. In this case they released his name right away and said he would be tried as an adult even though he’s only 14.
My opinions about guns have changed over the years. I used to be of the opinion that nobody should have guns in this day and age, what’s the point aside from ego boosting and sport.
Then a cheeto puff did a treason on jan6.
I’ll give up my guns only after the fascists give up theirs. Non negotiable.
You want to “prevent tragedies”? fund programs for welfare and healthcare. Tax the rich. Break up megacorps like google, albertsons, nestle. Enact and enforce employee protections. Raise the minimum wage. Ban airbnb and heavily tax empty residences. Universal basic income! Did I mention fixing the healthcare system? More that I’m forgetting to list.
Miserable parents make miserable kids, and miserable kids lash out. For the wealthiest and most powerful nation on the planet, this shouldn’t be hard to figure out.
So much to unpack here. Your last 2 paragraphs are lucid, but the previous 3 are unhinged.
it’s unhinged because of the implication of violence against a specific group of people identified by their political beliefs. And wouldn’t you know it, it’s that same group of people who are opposing all of the solutions I proposed in my previous comment.
That is such stupid logic. “Oh people want to violently overthrow the government? I want them to easily get guns” The fascists should be the exact reason you want to have strict gun control
It doesn’t work that way when they already all have guns. If you wanted to do it your way, you’d have needed to start on that gun control about 100 years ago.
Because the cops are not going to take the fascists’ guns, even if they were outlawed. They are vastly outnumbered by armed citizens, and they are scared of them, and many of the cops are the same fascists too.
also fire every single cop in the country and replace them all with people who actually believe that they’re supposed to protect and serve.
The problem is that all of those ex-cops would still exist and still be American citizens. They’d 100% create a far right militia, at the very least. No doubt about it.
Unless we shipped them off to Russia or something.
sounds like a domestic terrorist group, just the kind of thing that the fbi is supposed to put a stop to.
… Nestlé…
But surely it’s proper for one company to control the entire food supply. I mean you wouldn’t want to be a communist and not let the free market do as it wishes
/s in case the italics and words aren’t enough
This is the fault of republicans and their insane, murderous legislation.
